Chapter 159: Embarrassed

"It's my son, it's my son, I said the wrong thing!"

This night quarrel was invisibly eliminated by Geng Wen's timely admission of mistakes before he got up.

On the second day, Geng Wen Ruan and Geng Yan Jiang went to Yang's house for a banquet together, Geng Xingshuang did not go himself, but asked Jinbao to follow him to serve Ruan.

"Girl, slave and maid understand!" When Jin Bao left, he showed a tacit smile to Geng Xingshuang and said such a plausible sentence.

Geng Xingshuang knew that this girl must have thought about something again, so she advised: "You have to serve my mother well, if the Yang family says anything bad to my mother, you will tell me when you come back."

"Don't worry, girl, slave and maid can save it."

Geng Wen and Ruan came back in the early afternoon, and Geng Xingshuang greeted them, feeling that the faces of the father and mother were a little strange.

Geng Wen was trying to maintain a gentle look, but with a hint of apprehension, while Ruan was ...... There was a hint of excitement in his anger.

"Father, mother, what's wrong with you? What happened to the Yang family today? ”

Geng Wen glanced at his daughter and instructed Jin Bao: "You go to the outer courtyard and call the second young master over."

"I'm coming!"

As soon as Geng Wen's words fell, he heard Geng Shuhuai's voice coming in from outside.

"Mother, do you have something to do with me? Did you go to Yang's house today, what happened? Is there something wrong with the third room of the Yang family, they didn't embarrass you, right? ”

As soon as Geng Shuhuai entered the house, he hurriedly saluted Geng Wen, and then went straight to Ruan's and asked a series of questions with concern.

Geng Wen held his breath and wanted to ask this kid, could it be that there was a problem with his ears, obviously he asked Jinbao to call him.

Ruan Shi has long been accustomed to the mode of getting along with the father and son who are sometimes tense and sometimes indifferent to each other, she just glared at Geng Shuhuai slightly, and said to Geng Wen: "You say it first!"

Is that more than one thing?

Geng Xingshuang glanced at Jinbao, Jinbao nodded, but this girl didn't know if it was dull or pure-hearted, her eyes were shining, instead of Geng Wen and Ruan's worry and anger, she seemed to be faintly excited.

Geng Xingshuang now feels that the liveliness of the Yang Mansion today should be big enough, otherwise Jinbao would not be like this, it is completely a satisfied look to see the excitement.

"Let me ask you, are you in the outer courtyard, have you paid attention to Brother Lou in the past few days? Does he go out a lot? ”

Geng Shuhuai was stunned, he didn't expect Geng Wen to ask Geng Shulou about it, he glanced at Geng Wen, and found that his expression was rare and solemn, knowing that this matter should be very important, he thought for a while and said: "We don't communicate much, but Xiang Yin and Zizhu are very familiar, I also heard some from him, since the death of the second uncle, after the funeral, Geng Shulou himself was locked in the house for two days, and then he often went out of the house, every time he went out of the house, he was followed by Fang Zhu, Zizhu stayed."

Xiang Yin is the little guy next to Geng Shuhuai, he was randomly selected among the rough servants in the outer courtyard after he came back, Ruan was going to buy one for him, but he refused, he didn't need the little guy to serve most of the time.

"Know where he's gone?" Geng Wen asked in a deep voice.

Geng Shuhuai shook his head, "I don't know, Zizhu doesn't know, where did I know, and I didn't follow him, what happened?" If it's really important, it's not impossible for me to follow him for a trip or two. ”

Geng Xingshuang was also curious.

"Brother Lou went to Yang's Mansion today." Geng Wen said.

Geng Shuhuai and Geng Xingshuang looked at each other, and listened to Geng Wen continue: "He didn't go with us, nor did he go on behalf of Bofu, but as a staff member of King Ping's Mansion, he went to Yang's Mansion to send congratulatory gifts."

"Ah...... This...... Is it because of the fourth sister? ”

Geng Shuhuai was stunned for a moment before asking.

Geng Wen shook his head, "He didn't stay in the Yang Mansion for a long time, I went to him after I heard about it, he just said that King Ping is very good, what he is doing now is also a way to revitalize the family, and your grandfather also knows about it." ”

"Then you didn't ask grandfather?" Geng Shuhuai asked.

Geng Wen shook his head, he didn't explain why.

Geng Xingshuang seemed to be aware, maybe in her father's heart, there seemed to be no difference between asking and not asking.

What Geng Shulou is doing now, on the surface, it seems that he just wants to seek a better way out, in her grandfather's thoughts, maybe he wants to use the eldest grandson's way out to seek a way out for Bofu, or maybe in Geng Xun's heart, the eldest grandson Geng Shulou represents Bofu, and he is good for Bofu.

However, Geng Wen and Geng Yan did not regard Geng Shulou as the salvation of the Bofu.

In their opinion, Geng Shulou may not be able to prosper in terms of the three rooms of Bofu's big house, but it can be a loss.

"King Ping...... Tut...... Geng Shulou... Based on the current situation of our family, can Geng Shulou understand those things in the court now? King Ping is very good, how does he judge the word 'good', and what can this word 'good' represent? ”

Geng Shuhuai also understood what Geng Shulou's current behavior represented, with the current situation of the Bo Mansion, participating in such a major event as seizing the heir is tantamount to a flat boat strayed into the turbulent waves, no need to be careless, even if you are always attentive and cautious, you will be swallowed by the waves at any time.

"Dad, mother, what's the other thing?"

Geng Xingshuang thought for a while and asked, listening to the two things together, he could think of countermeasures, although he might not have thought of it.

This matter was said by the Ruan family, "Today, that He Yuzhu also went to the Yang Mansion, not only her, but also her grandmother who was destined for three grades." ”

Ruan thought that as soon as she and the Jiang family entered the main courtyard of Mrs. Yang, they saw Mrs. He who was in formal service, she didn't think much about it, after all, the He family was also the in-laws of the Yang family, and they were both elders and had a high status, so after she and Jiang entered the house, they curtsied to Mrs. He together.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. He didn't speak for a long time, and she used the way that the evil mother-in-law pinched her daughter-in-law to pinch Ruan and Jiang, she didn't speak, it stands to reason that Ruan and Jiang were not good to take care of themselves and sit down next to them.

It's just that Ruan's was not so stupid at that time, she wasn't ready to stand with Jiang so stupidly, so Mrs. He had been looking for words to talk to Mrs. Yang at that time, and she didn't mean to be embarrassed, but she was just busy talking to Mrs. Yang and ignored the image of the two juniors who were still saluting at the next time, but the discerning person knew what was going on at a glance.

Ruan was about to find two seats to sit down with Jiang, but he searched the room, but he didn't even see an empty small pestle, let alone a chair and stool.

Geng Xingshuang was very angry when she heard this, she knew that she couldn't blame Yang Tianmo, he was a man after all, not long after he came back, and he lived in the outer courtyard, he naturally couldn't take care of the things in Mrs. Yang's house, but thinking of the grievances her mother suffered in the Yang family, she was still very angry, very angry.

"And then?" Geng Shuhuai also frowned.

"Later, it was the maid next to the second young grandmother who brought Dewang Dexing and four or five small maids, and brought more than a dozen chairs and a stool, which filled the main courtyard of Mrs. Yang."

When Ruan Shi said this, he smiled slightly when he thought of the depression in his heart at that time, and the joy when it was suddenly vented.

Geng Xingshuang didn't expect things to turn like this, she sneered, "Did Brother Yang do it?" ”

Zeng Hui is her granddaughter-in-law, so she shouldn't be able to do such a thing.

Ruan nodded, "Dewang said, my sixth master said, I didn't want to hold this banquet, first, I felt that Qiu Yu was just the beginning, and it was not worth celebrating at this time, and secondly, I felt that holding a banquet would make the elders tired for his affairs, and the sixth master felt ashamed, but since the elders loved him, as a junior, he naturally had to be obedient, so now the preparation is not enough, so that the guests have no chairs to sit on, it is all the fault of our sixth master, and please don't blame the elders in the family!" ”

Dewang's voice is high and bright, so even if Mrs. He wants to pretend that she didn't hear it, and Mrs. Yang seems to be the one who is really confused.

"Hey, don't you have a chair? I remember that I didn't deliberately move ten more chairs yesterday, the third daughter-in-law, didn't you ask to greet the guests yourself? How to greet guests without chairs to sit? ”

Mrs. Yang was just asking a question, but in the ears of the guests, it was a question.

There is no mention that Mrs. Yang San is deliberate, but it is also saying that Mrs. Yang San and Mrs. He are in collusion to do this kind of deliberately embarrassing little family thing.
